Cu-10Ni alloy suffers accelerated corrosion in sulfide polluted seawater. As an alternative, a new single phased, Cu-28%Zn-5%Ni-5%Mn-2%Fe alloy (hereby referred as CNZ-alloy) is developed and tested for the corrosion resistance in clean and sulfide polluted synthetic seawater. The CNZ-alloy showed better corrosion resistance than the standard Cu-10Ni alloy in both the test solutions i.e. clean and sulfide polluted synthetic seawater with . The results are discussed on the basis of polarization and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy. The better corrosion resistance of CNZ-alloy is attributed to the formation of protective ZnS and MnS2 films.

The results of corrosion properties research of aluminum alloy AW 7020 (AlZn5Mg1) welded by friction stir welding FSW were presented. Friction Stir Welding (FSW) a new technology can be successfully used for butt welding of different types of aluminum alloy sheets. In the article the parameters for friction stir welding of sheets made of AlZn5Mg1 (7020) alloy was presented. The study was carried out in accordance with the requirements of the ASTM G 106. EIS measurement was performed in three electrode system in an artificial seawater (3.5% NaCl). Impedance studies were carried out at the corrosion potential. Changed voltage signal amplitude in the range ± 10 mV and frequency range of changes was as follows: 100 kHz - 0.1 Hz. Atlas 0531 EU & IA potentiostat was used for studies. The results of electrochemical impedance spectroscopy are presented in the form of parameters characterizing the corrosion process. Obtained results were statistically analyzed. The electrochemical impedance spectroscopy studies have shown that the joint welded by FSW has better electrochemical corrosion resistance than the native material - AW-7020 alloy. Original value are received results of the corrosion properties of new method friction stir welded AlZn5Mg1 alloy compared with the native material.

Abstract The effect of Sr addition on the microstructure and time-dependent corrosion properties of the AlSi12 eutectic alloy was investigated. The modified alloy contained 90 ± 3 ppm Sr. The microstructural differences in the eutectic structure of AlSi12 alloys were assessed in terms of the Si particle size and a-Al volume fraction. The unmodified and Sr-modified alloys were immersed for 1, 24, 72 and 120 h in 3.5 wt.% NaCl. Electrochemical impedance spectroscopy and potentiodynamic polarization techniques were performed to analyze the corrosion characteristics of the alloys. Sr addition led to a decrease in the Si particle size, and the formation of long dendritic a-Al. It was found that the presence of Sr resulted in more stable corrosion behavior up to 24 h. The deterioration of the corrosion behavior of Sr-modified alloy was observed with the further increase of immersion time.
